Memorial .church, . took for his sermon yesterday a timely topic, one dealing with religion and youth, during which the clergyman ex- plained that in the past, as at the present, the older generations worried considerably over what they termed the lack of religion in the rising generation. In this sermon, the preacher said: It has been the sad refrain of the generations in the past, as well as of the present to decry the lack of en- thusiasm and devotedness of the youth to religion and church. “The young people in each genera- tion have been criticised for their lack of interest in matters of religion and in serious thought. And in the or months, in the human family this period of dependence stretches out into years. The object unquestionably 1= that there may be ample oppor- ‘unity for character-molding. “And this is the central purpose of the home—the moral and spirituai nudture of the youthful naure, so that without any need of earthquake con- versions or cyclone revivals the youns may grow up into Christ as naturally as by instinct. The young people as well as children, get their religious cducation and Christian inspiration from the lives of their parents and from their quiet examples, far more than they do get from church and Sunday school. Parents have often woke up too late to discover the fatal results of their neglect and careless- ness and have shed tears of bitter use- lessness. The fact is that any so- called Christian homes are essentially heathen homes, in the ideals and in the atmosphere with which they sur+ round the mentality of the young peo- ple—and they will not stand for Lypocricy or double life. They can ant live heathens during the week and appear saintly snd Christian on Sun- day. Frankness and whole-hearted- ness are their chgracteristics. What are the sum total and quality of the impressions that the young people of process of time when a generation of such young people have settled in the years of maturity they also in turn have inflicted the same kind of criticism upon the youth of their own day, frogetting that they were also once subject to severe and unjust criticism. “The human soul, whether young or old, is incurably religious. The sense of dependence on a Supreme Being, the distinction between the right and .wrong type of living, and similar feelings or aspirations are potentially dormant wer fully de- veloped: and expressed in living creatures, just as the life of a tree or bush is potentially inlaid within its seed. 'Religion expresses itself in differ- ent forms in the various periods of lite. It will be quite abnormal to find the religion of a child, perpetu- ated in exact way and form in the life of a mature person. And yet the young peqple are quite often severely criticised because they do not act or do in religious matters in the same way or form as their parents or grown up friends do. Considering the unique period and chaotic imes in which we are living, I think the youth of our generation Is doing fairly well. The girls may be a iittle over-stylish in dress, and young men “wild” in their conduct, but they all are working hard and facing squarely this badly damaged world with all its puzzling and mixed up problems and vices—this world condition which is handed down to them from the older generation. The youth of our gen- eration, unlike the former ones, are true and loyal at heart, frank with each other and with their elders. They are eager to bring right and peaceful relations in the affairs of the world and fully appreciate the church and religion which give prac- tical messages and honest and sincere expressions to various phases of human life. “The youth of our generation |is religious. The great dormant possi- bility of .that instinct should be brought out by two essential means— the individual effort of the young person and the intelligent and exemplary work of the parents. “My young friend: Be ever thoughtful of your ‘after-man’, the sort of creature you will be ten years or\twenty years from now. His des- tiny is in your hands, in your keep- ing. You can, by your actions and habits, either make his life happy or miserable. Your ‘after-man’ or ‘aft- er-woman' depends on you alone. If you want a good investment, invest in your ‘after-man’. Act today, so that ten or fifteen years from now, with a strong body and trained mind your ‘after-man’ can step in and continue your work. To do this only a little care, a little forethought, a little restraint are necessary. “In the first place, evil habits should" be shunned, for if you begin them you plant the seeds that will grow and mature in after years. In your daily thoughts, in your com- panionship, at your conversations, at your pleasures, you are either dig- ging a grave of destruction for your after-man’ or a step ladder, where- upon it will soar into the heights of happiness and immortality. “God; your creator and Heavenly Father wants your early years. It is fatally wrong and unjust to withhold our youth from God. A Christian woman was employed as a nurse in & house where a dear mother lay il Her daughter, a girl of fifteen, had never given her heart to Christ, fear- ing that by so doing she might loze some of her youthful pleasures, and saying that when she grew older, then she would give herself to the inter- ests of church and religion. One day she came into the house bringing a bouquet of beautiful fresh carnations for her mother. The . nurse com- mented upon their loveliness and then sald. ‘We will not take them up to your mother now-—they are too fresh and beautiful; we will wait a few days unti] they have begun (o fade and wither.” The young girl was surprised, almost indignant and sought an explanation for such ' 'a seemingly unnatural cqurse. Said the nurse: ‘Is not this what you are doing to your HeaVehl i"gther? Are you not by your wondfict ‘reserving for yourself the beauty and fresh- ness of youf youngr life, and wafting to offer him the faded blossoms from which all*the beauty dhd freshnesa has departed?'’ o1 < “Great many young people today are carried away with this erroneous and fatal thought. Life hever stands still, except In case of death. Habits and character aré rapidly and stead- {ly formed In the days of youth. Whether you wijl be a blessing or a curse to your family or to your com- munity, it is in your own hands to decide. Select the highest and noblest \deals and principles, which will develop within your personality, the senses loyally to your God and lov- ing service to your fellow-people. "M enjoyments and pleasures today get in their homes, in the stores and factories and in the circle of their friendships? These quiet and mostly unconscious influences have more to do with the character and religious life of a young person than the oc- casional Sunday school class or going to a church service. What is needed today for the honest development of the religious nature in the life of our yvouth, is more cleanness in every day conversation, exemplary manners and conducts, respect to good char- acter than to “almighty” dollar, and in a word a devoted and consistent life, which is honest and Christian to the core. It is ot fair to sit back and criticise the young people. The thing to do is to get in front and lead them through an exemplary life.” CORBIN PICNIC SATURDAY Single Beautics Win Ball Game— President Parsons Speaks — See White City Before Fire. Violating all established precedents in similar games,” the ingle Beauties,” of the P. and’ F. Corbin company, defeated the ‘“Married Warriors” in the annual baseball game at the outing at Savin Rock Saturday. About 100 employes of the Corbin office participated in the outing. A box lunch was eaten on the lawn of the state pavilion at Wallingford, en route. The various stunts which were scheduled for the day were can- celled with the exception of the base- ball game. Following the shore din- ner, served at 4:30 o'clock, Charles B. Parsons, president and general manager of the Corbin company, de- livered an intéresting address on the subject of good fellowship among fellow workers. H. C. Barnes, chief: engineer in fhe designing and special machine mak- ing department, was chosen leader of a sight-seeing trip among the vari- ous “stunts” in the park.

Hartford, June 27.—Governor Lake's failure to act on bills passed by the legislature, either approving or disapproving them within three days after adjournment, has cast a grave doubt on the validity of a score of im- portant bills, all the big measures, as usual, being held tack until the last few days of the session, which was adjourned by constitutional mandate on June 8. It was raid by one of the best le- =al authorities in the state and an ex- pert' in legislative matters that the situation was especially unfortunate becaus2 of big bond issves which may be attacked as irregular, as well as the new bigamy bill, »hich was in- tended to remedy a wide open defect in Connecticut marriage statutes. The constitution provides that if the governor fails to return a bill within three days when the Legislature is in session it chall be a law, but if the legislature is not in session it shall not he a law. Governor Lake has in< sisted he had three days after the en- grossed bills werc presented to him and that if the printers were slow, he had =2ll the time in the world until the 1923 assembly convenes. Governor Lake has pointed out a suprame court decision in the Norwalk town division case of 18 years ago, but Attorney General Healy says that his decision, in declaring the ‘“three duys’ mentioned in the constitution mean three legislative and not calendar days. applied only v hen the assembly was in session. LIQUOR IS CONDEMNED Gentile's Valuable Stock Taken From Him by Operation of State Liquor Statutes, One of the most costly stocks of wines and liquors seized by the local police was condemned this morning when condemnation proceedings, un- contested, were brought by Liquor Prosscuting Agent Michael A. Sexton against the stuff seized at Frank Gen- tile's Cherry street store. Gentile was fined on''a charge of keeping liquor with intent to sell when arraigned in court last week.. Whiskey, wine and anisette comprised the seizure by the police. Condemnation proceedings were also brought in the cases'of Salvatore Maselli, William Karkonik and Stan- ley: Neidzweicke. CO-OPERATIVE STORE CHANGES OWNERSHIP Corbin-Russwin Store — Successful: During Rising Prices—Taken Oyer | - The remaining store of the Corbin< Russwin Stores, Inc., situated at the corner.of Elm and Park streets, has been sold by the-incorporators to Messrs. Al .E. Siderowf and Morris Gordon, proprietors of ‘the New ,Brit- ain marifet and H. M. Herman, man- ager. of e Belton Wholesale Grocery Co. '\Thg financial -amount' involved has not jween divulged. - . 3 This $tore was opened for business in JdnMary, (1919, by employes of The ' Anderican Hardware ‘The principal idea' being to sell : food, groceries, fruit, ‘meat and Tfsh to themselves on a cost plus overhead plan. It funttioned successfully dur- ing the period of rising- pricés and those''who were cofnected with it feel that it had a lot to do wjth pre- venting profiteering in New Britain. ‘With the recent falling market, prices getting: lower all the time, the store as a co-operative .institution -has lost its usefulness and hence the decision to sell. During the busy season this store was known to do business which ran as high as $500 per day. It is said to be the largest of its kind in the state. The new proprietors have . taken possession and are overhauling . the stock and fixtures- preparatory to their grand opening on Friday morn- ing. They plan to carry the same high grade merchandise as the for- mer proprietors did. “We are going to give the people the best service of any one in the city, and we are going to sell them goods at less than jobbers’ prices—the highest grade morning. ———— HAWAITAN GARRISON.
